Based on preliminary production reports, the Company estimates that its first quarter 2009 oil production from tertiary operations averaged approximately 22,583 Bbls/d, a 3% sequential increase over the 21,874 Bbls/d of tertiary production in the fourth quarter of 2008 and a 32% increase over the 17,156 Bbls/d of such production during the first quarter of 2008. The Company's estimated first quarter 2009 tertiary production is generally in-line with the Company's annual average tertiary production forecast of 24,500 Bbls/d, and while the Company's total production numbers for the first quarter are not yet available, they too are expected to be in-line with the Company's prior estimates. During the first quarter of 2009, the Company had initial production response from its tertiary flood at Cranfield Field (Phase IV), and continued improved production response from most of its other floods. More detail will be provided at the analyst meetings.
